==Early life==
George Smith Patton was born George William Patton in Charleston, West Virginia (then Virginia), on September 30, 1856. He was the son of George S. Patton, Sr. and Susan Thornton Glassell.〔John Steven McGroarty, (Los Angeles from the Mountains to the Sea ), Volume 2, pages 391-392〕
The senior Patton served in the Confederate States Army and attained the rank of Colonel as commander of the 22nd Virginia Infantry Regiment.〔Earle Rice, (George S. Patton ), 2009, page 24〕 By some accounts, he had been recommended for advancement to Brigadier General, but was killed at the Battle of Opequon (Third Battle of Winchester) before the promotion was acted on.〔Terry Lowry, (22nd Virginia Infantry ), 1988, page 75〕 His brother Waller T. Patton, George William Patton's uncle, was also a Colonel in the Confederate Army, and commanded the 7th Virginia Infantry until he was wounded at the Battle of Gettysburg and died several weeks later.〔Michael Keane, (Patton: Blood, Guts, and Prayer ), 2012, page 84〕〔The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, (Notes and Queries ), Volume 27, January 1919, page 75〕
George William Patton later changed his name to George Smith Patton to honor his father. The younger George Smith Patton graduated from Virginia Military Institute, studied law in Lexington, Virginia, and became an attorney.〔James Miller Guinn, (A History of California and an Extended History of Los Angeles ), Volume 3, 1915, page 509〕
